Abstract: A dual pattern nozzle comprises a fluid oscillator of the type which utilizes an obstacle or island in the path of liquid flow to produce a vortex street downstream of the island. A flow splitter is disposed downstream of and sufficiently close to the island to prevent the flow around the island from re-combining before reaching the flow divider, whereupon liquid vortices are alternately issued from each side of the divider. The spinning liquid breaks up into two patterns of droplets, the patterns being directed at respective spaced areas.

Abstract: An improved automotive pump assembly includes a volute pumping chamber configured to operably contain a rotatable impeller which, when driven, draws fluid into a fluid inlet and pumps the fluid to and through a fluid outlet. The volute chamber has an exterior sidewall with a constant internal first radius over a first sidewall portion and transitions to a second sidewall portion of increasing radius. The chamber's second sidewall portion defines a first end at a sidewall transition point tangent to the constant radius sidewall segment to define a second end which is tangent to the volute chamber's fluid outlet with a second radius that is greater than the first radius.
